Everyday Testing

Colin Campbell, Test Analyst at Edge Testing

We all like to solve problems, it’s something that gives us all a great deal of satisfaction. When we attempt to solve problems, we can’t consider them solved unless we prove it through a test of some sort. Some tests we perform seem so simple and are repeated so many times, that we stop consciously thinking about them as tests - they become part of our habits and daily lives.

Top 5 Open Source Testing Tools

Jim McLean, Test Lead at Edge Testing

When compiling a top 5 list the biggest difficulty is whittling down the large list of testing tools available under open source licence. So, forgive me if I have not included your favourite. Also bear in mind that I have only included open source tools. There is also a large selection of tools that are free to use but are not released under open source licensing. Free does not mean it is open source.

Marc Condy, Test Analyst, Edge Testing

No need to buy smart devices when you can use emulators for all your software testing needs, well so I’ve heard… Today I would like to share some of my own research with you, should we do mobile app testing on real mobile devices, use emulators, or use a combination of both?
